There are always tests that are always current in the junit tests. Admittedly, they aren't nice, stand-alone tests, but they do the things that you are referencing. And they're always up to date since the tests are always running.
Look particularly at SolrExampleTests.java and SolrQueryTest.java. About EmbeddedSolrServer. Actually, it's perfectly reasonable to use. In fact the MapReduceIndexerTool uses it to create partial indexes that are eventually merged. It's usually just that ESS is a poor fit for multi-user applications. Why re-invent all the stuff that the servlet containers already do?
